12-16:00 delivery window is now 40 mins late… why would Apple use UPS here in Germany instead of DHL or DPD, it’s terrible. Betting it doesn’t come 🤦
Public holiday on Monday so that’ll mean Tuesday at the earliest

Same here. Actually i tested out. And tried to put in random zip codes just for fun. And it seems no matter which store it is. It says not available to pickup till Monday. Maybe that changes if they get a shipment in today. 🤷♀️
UK here. DHL delivering mine which sucks because it’s coming between 5-6pm but at least it’s today so feel good about that given my previous rants 😂
Apple store app still showing Thursday 26th May 🤦🏽♂️
Looking forward to catching up on all those ATV+ shows I’ve been saving up. Hope everyone is enjoying theirs 👍🏽

I am lucky enough to have an Apple store nearby so today I went there and picked up my 64GB one.
Having an LG Oled which supports Dolby Atmos I’m quite pleased to see ATV now supporting this.
The remote controller is great as well, with an immediate learning curve if, like me, you come from the previous model.

Mine was scheduled for June 2th, I bought it at a Swiss electronic shop, not from Apple directly.
Got the notification for pick up today!
Jumping from an AppleTV HD.
But sadly I won't have time to install it until tomorrow...

Mine was originally scheduled for delivery on 2nd June (Netherlands). The status remained at ‘preparing to ship’ until this evening. I was annoyed because it was available for pick-up at the Apple store that’s just 10 minutes walk from my house, but since the status stayed in ‘preparing to ship’ means I couldn’t cancel the pre-order. Anyway, as of now, the delivery has moved up to next Tuesday (25th May), Monday being a holiday here. DHL site says that label has been generated, but shipment not yet received from Apple. I wonder if somehow they manage to deliver it tomorrow.
My Apple TV has been delivered to "a safe place" by DHL.
The photo on their website shows it having been left on a doorstep (not our doorstep) in the pi$$ing rain.
Great service DHL.

Arrived just after noon today. DHL FTW! (New routing this time though, via Brussels and Copenhagen, not Liege and Leipzig.)

Well, my remote has turned up, but it’s staying sealed and is being collected next week. That is because I’ve brought the Apple TV 4K itself! Upgrading from my gen 1 4K once I heard about the ability for ARC/eARC with the new ATV for my HomePod’s. This is the feature I wanted so! New delivery date is Tuesday!
And just got the delivery notification. Time to put on some pants and go downstairs to collect it from the concierge. 
UPS never delivers on time, they always arrive late in the evening, despite even paying for a 2 hour guarantee!!!
I’ve been following my delivery and the UPS truck has driven by my house 2 times already and it’s at the other end of the neighborhood lmao

Got mine today via DHL delivery.
My first Apple TV. Very good so far. I expect to utilise a VPN given the country I'm currently living in locks me out of a lot content. Simple set up.
I'm playing audio through a single HomePod and it sounds so much better than the tinny internal speakers of the TV. I expect Apple will do something like this for the HomePod Minis in the next TVos updates.
So nice to have the iTunes Store for video rentals and purchases. I've never had that before. Plenty of apps and can't wait to try Apple Fitness classes on the TV.
The new remote is simple and works well. I'm sure a huge upgrade over the previous iteration.

It’s crazy one ups driver left the atv on my front door, then the 2nd ups driver left a note for delivery attempt and told me to pick it up somewhere far away. He obsviously saw the exact same package on the ground. That makes my blood boil 😠
So my Apple TV got delivered 30 minutes after we left and the text message I got from UPS said “left residential”.
I messaged a daughter and she went over and retrieved it from the condo hallway where they left it in front of our door.
So at least it’s safe and not sitting in the hallway all weekend.

Yeah, how badly UPS buggers things up every time that there's a launch is pretty laughable. They're actually supposed to require a signature for these (unless you go on UPS MyChoice and waive it).
If it wasn’t for COVID I would have just gone to the Apple store today and bought one there instead of getting it online. Also, getting deliveries in a condo is complicated. Lol.
Mine got delivered about 2:55p. Finally finished work and about to set it up. Yippee! Apple made a rough week a little better. Both my iPads from ATT also got delivered. I’m happy!😁

Tracking still showing yesterday delivery 🤦

Got mine yesterday. Thankfully DHL in Sweden let you chose whether or not to have it delivered to your house or to a service point. I always chose a service point. Working from home was not a thing in Sweden before COVID. I do work from home now but I’ve never had a good experience with home delivery. Much rather take the 10 minute walk to the service station (a local grocery store) and pick it up there. Installed it yesterday but didn’t have much time to play with it.
